Yes! Yes! We’ve finally got some winners for ya! Emily, Fred and I put our collective heads together and have named the following entries as our grand prize winners! These winners will receive the respect of their peers, along with that juicy Level Up Studios store credit!

Halolzween Winner AU 313

Our most creative winner this year was Primevil with his amazing pumpkin rendition of Metroid Prime 3’s Aurora Unit 313! You may remember some of his previous work when he won prizes in our first year and second year contest with his impressive Metroid themed carvings! Who knows what Metroid themed thing we’ll see next year!

Halolzween Most Detailed Winner

Our most detailed winner this year was ceemdee, who for a second year swept the category with her incredibly beautiful carvings! We featured these three in particular because each judge had a favorite… Emily voted for “Bastion,” Fred voted for “Ico” and Shawn voted for “Minesweeper.” However you have to admit that all her entries were extremely well done!

Halolzween Most Humorous WInner 2011

And finally our most humorous winner this year was “Pumpkin Gaiden” by newcomer Sir Zebulon Anselm Löwe lll! His Ryu Hayabusa pumpkin literally destroyed the competition, along with most of his front yard!

Congratulations again to all our grand prize winners, and stay tuned for our next post where we will announce our eight runner-up winners!

    for me the "most detailed" winners are more impressive than the grand prize one (too much tinfoil).

    Congrats to the winners.
    I was sure that Worms might win something.
    That pumpkin alone contained some pure nostalgias.

    I want that Minesweeper.

    Minesweeper pumpkin was my favorite. I'm glad it won something.

    Hopefully nobody feels their win was a hallow victory.

    Ughh that is the last time I try and pull off something that complex (my hand is still sore).
    That said glad you all liked it although it was only last night when I realized what I should have done.

    So, if i accidentaly hit a mine, will the pumpkin explode?

    The link attached to Shawns' 'Yes! Yes!' was quite disappointing. No M. Bison video. D:

  13. SentryGunner on November 2nd, 2011 2:43 pm

    I vote next year we have a "Being Primevil" category to make things be a bit more streamlined.

    I call hax on whoever made the Bastion submission.
